War: Use weapons we delivered against Russia – Germany to Ukraine

The German government on Friday said Ukraine can use weapons it delivers against attacks from positions over the Russian border.

The government said together with its closest allies and in consultation with Ukraine, it is continually adapting its support to developments in the war.

In a statement, the German government said in recent weeks, Russia has prepared, coordinated and carried out attacks on the Kharkiv region in areas just over the border in Russia.

“Together we are convinced that Ukraine has the right under international law to defend itself against these attacks.

“For this, it can also use the weapons delivered for that purpose in accordance with its international legal commitments, including the ones delivered by us,” the statement reads.
